About Our Governing Board
The Northwest Fire District is governed by the Northwest Fire District Board of Directors. Our Board is comprised of five non-partisan Board members who are elected by registered voters who reside within the District. Each member serves a staggered, four year term so that no more than two terms expire in any given year. The Governing Board meets at 6:00 PM on the fourth Tuesday of each month.
Committees can be formed by the Governing Board to address specific issues. Information on these committees can be found here.
